Which National Parks Students can visit in Darwin

Darwin is the smallest, wettest and most northerly of the Australian capital cities that put a huge amount of resources in the development of its education system. It is home to the Larrakia people, who are prominent and active members of the local community. The city has evolved a lot from its days as a laid back frontier town and while it still retains its relaxed charm, it has become a modern city. The city is named after Charles Darwin and has a university by the same name which is ranked among the top 2 per cent of all the world’s universities. It hosts a large chunk of students which makes finding Student Accommodation Darwin quite difficult. 




If you’re in Darwin studying or enjoying your holidays, you must surely visit these two stunning national parks: Mary River National Park and Litchfield National Park. Both of them are just a short drive from the city and nurture exquisite landscapes and wildlife. 

Mary River National Park


Situated 150 kilometres east of Darwin along the Arnhem Highway, the Mary River National Park is a nice place for anglers and wildlife watchers alike. The park’s river, wetlands and billabongs are popularly frequented by a huge concentration of birdlife and are known to have the largest population of saltwater crocodiles in the Northern Territory.



Normally, the park is popular with wildlife viewing cruises, guided twitcher tours, and experienced fishing charters. If you’re travelling on your own, you can find excellent viewing platforms for wildlife watching and crocodile spotting, as well as nice convenient camping areas and boat ramps. 

Litchfield National Park


Located near the township of Batchelor and covering approximately 1500 square km, Litchfield National Park is tucked away behind expansive plains and magnetic termite mounds. Its wonderfully fun spring-fed waterfalls and waterholes make it one of the favourites with territory locals. It is the perfect escape from the city for a swim at Florence Falls, Wangi Falls, or soothed by the gentle series of cascades at Buley Rockhole. 



On land, there are staggering steps to viewing platforms and lookouts offering stunning views of much of the park. There are plenty of campsites accessible on foot, so set up a tent and enjoy easy access to the Park’s swimming areas, walking tracks, and picnic spots.



Students can ensure a comfortable stay in their Student Accommodation Darwin and visit these national parks on weekends to enjoy their time and explore this beautiful city. University Living, a student housing marketplace offers great accommodations in various Australian cities.
